Europe's leading NGO coalition fighting dangerous climate change!
It is not a game over. We need YOU to keep the pressure up!

Council of the EU adopted EU-Mercosur deal with a minimal margin. There is still strong opposition.

Next, European Parliament has a crucial role. We can still #StopEUMercosur!

🌱 The path to secure, affordable energy lies at home: strong grids, electrification with clean renewables, and energy savings for a truly resilient European energy future.

❗️This would only lock Europe into decades of costly and risky fossil gas dependence. The EU cannot let its energy future be decided elsewhere.

While ministers debate grids, energy security, and methane rules, US fossil gas interests are busy pushing to weaken a key EU energy policy - the Methane Regulation - all to boost LNG exports.

We demand:
✅An ambitious EU roadmap to #TaxTheSuperRich
✅Commitment from EU countries to increase taxes on the super-rich at national level

The European Parliament is debating taxing the ultra-rich today. We woke up early this morning to call the EU to end loopholes, boost transparency and #TaxTheSuperRich.

8 in 10 euros of EU tax revenue come from ordinary Europeans! This must end ✊💶

Industrial Emissions Directive (IED), previously watered down just last year, is among the slash list.

@ec.europa.eu is dangerously backtracking on democratically agreed rules to support industries producing green European steel, chemicals and cement.

This is not helping the European economy.

When nature loses, we all lose.

Environmental laws need no fixing. They need enforcing.

Protect the rules that protect us.

Let's be clear: Environmental Omnibus weakens the rules set to keep us safe, our air breathable, our water clean and our nature alive.

The decision is heavily stained with fingerprints from the industry lobbyists.

Unfortunately, nature cannot buy such a political influence.
